clared his intention of Withdrawing
from politics, and for putting hun in

The EXAMINER is profoundly
grateful to the business men of Waco
for the generous welcome extended
to the new management, and prom
ises its best endeavors to prove
worthy of their kindness. The reor-
ganization of tue editorial staff neces-
ssrily occasions temporary short
comings in the various apartments,

efficient workers, and average excel.

creasing and growing patronage of
the paper has so far inspired the hope
of the proprietors as to encourage
them to add sixth column and ven
ture other expenditures for improve
ment. 1t is their purpose to make
The EXAMINER a first class daily
newspaper, and to merit a patronage
that will sustain it.
The new management OF The Elk
AMINER will gradually feel its way
surefooted, into local issues and ques-
tons, striving to deal freely and fairly
with all of them, without wading
beyond it's depth. An honest and
earnest effort will be made to assume
none but tenable positions-those
that can be su ;eessfully held in the
best interests of the people. Rings,
cIiques and jobs may take warning

power on earth can divert it to the

Tuesday night TO consider PROPOSE
ton from the Cotton Belt, to build
the line from McGregor to the Capital.
There was commendable eagerncss
for the road, but it was doubted if the

secure it could be raised; and SO they
agreed on system OF coquetry and
